Are there a lot of pet groomers around? I can't think of any in Hopkinton (I don't have any pets personally) I'll keep it in mind for next time.

We have until Monday to make entries...OK.....For dry cleaning, Hiller's on Main St. in Hopkinton has been very professional and courteous. I've had good luck with it.

Maybe best senior center as a category ? Volunteers who help are very caring.

Yes, senior centers are wonderful, and hard to choose, but the one right in Hopkinton is great and has a Veteran's breakfast once a month, too. The ladies working on that are super and very helpful and accomodating, makes everybody feel right at home.

interesting to see senior centers mentioned in this post! the center in Holliston is wonderful, with a great director and tons of programming (i admit i'm a bit biased because i teach yoga there!). they are often hidden gems!

All the senior centers are great, I've been to the one in Holliston, too, Roberta, have friends who go there. Local communities do a great job.
